Rod is parallel 
in all cases.

Pins include 
tibial slope.

With the knee flexed at 90 degrees, place the tibial resection 
guide with uprod assembly onto the proximal anterior 
medial aspect of the tibia and both plateaus. Avoid using 
excessive force to seat the guide. Apply most of the force 
anterior to posterior while holding the guide as described. 

To assist in the medial/lateral positioning of the tibial pin 
guide, refer to the last page of the Patient Proposal which 
contains a top view of the patient’s tibial surface. It is 
recommended to visualize the red line shown in the 
Patient Proposal to the patient’s bone and to check 
alignment with the raised line on the lateral aspect of the 
tibial pin guide (Figure 4).

The planned Varus/Valgus (V/V) alignment can be confirmed 
by verifying the alignment of the rod to the patient’s tibial 
crest and center of the ankle (Figure 5). The rod is designed 
to be parallel to the mechanical axis of the tibia regardless of 
the planned tibial slope, when viewed laterally.

Note: 

The position of the line in the Patient Proposal 

is intended to reference the medial one-third of the 
tibial tubercle and not the middle of the tibial crest 
(Figure 4).

Note: 

It is recommended to clear extraneous tissue 

along the anterior medial aspect of the tibia. Soft 
tissue impingement can impact the fit of the guide 
and overall alignment or slope. Visualization in 
assessing proper fit observed from a sagittal or side 
view is helpful. 

Note: 

To position the guide, apply most of the 

pressure to the anterior aspect and the remaining 
pressure to the proximal aspect of the guide. This 
will help assure proper seating of the guide at the 
appropriate resection level. The correct position is 
found when there is minimal or no toggling/rocking 
of the tibial pin guide.

Once the tibia pin guide and uprod assembly is in the 
desired position, hold it in place, and secure it to the bone 
by drilling two (recommended P/N 9505-02-302) pins, first 
through the lateral and then the medial, drill guide pin 
holes (Figure 6).

placement.
